Teej festival, the celebration of the monsoons
(July-Aug), is celebrated all over the state with each region
having its own unique touch. Kajli Teej of Bundi is different in
several ways-while Teej is celebrated on the third day of the
month of Shravana, in Bundi it is celebrated on the third day of
the month of Bhadra. The festival starts with the procession of
goddess Teej in a decorated palanquin from the beautiful
Naval Sagar. It passes through the main bazaars and
terminates at Azad Park. The procession has decorated elephants,
camels, bands, performing artists and colourfully dressed
people.

This is the time to renew the ties of fidelity for married
couples in Rajasthan, and special sweetmeats, and swing
rides are characteristic of it. The people who gather here from
surrounding areas also get to watch and participate in the
cultural programmes that are organised in the evenings. It
provides a very good chance to see performances by local artists
from Hadoti region.

Though the main function of Teej is held only on two days, the
celebrations continue upto Janmashtami, which marks the
birth of Lord Krishna.
